The top student must be diligent

"Just get used to it, that's how physics works."

He sighed slightly.

But he knew that this model could be further optimized, because although physics doesn't care much about a certain degree of error, in fact, according to his calculations just now, the error between the calculation results and those specific phenomena is still relatively large.

Among them, it may be mainly because of x, the coupling constant between electron density and spin density, which can now also be called Xiao Yi constant, or superconducting constant.

Similar to Einstein constant and Planck constant.

According to Xiao Yi's calculation results, this x≈1.271851 is obviously still a little inaccurate.

As for how to optimize, for him, there is a very simple method.

"Experiment! Data!"

As long as more experiments and more data are carried out, he can easily get a more accurate value of x.

When he thought of this, he wanted to travel to a year later and go to the already built Science Island Laboratory to conduct experiments.

But in the end, he still shook his head.

"Forget it, let's not think too much about it."

"Let's go to the School of Materials and borrow Sun Lina's laboratory... Well, okay, it should be Luo Mingya's laboratory."

...

Chapter 182 Luo Mingya's graduation defense

After coming to the School of Materials, Xiao Yi was not unfamiliar with this place.

In fact, he already knew a lot of professors here.

During this period, because of the Science Island Laboratory, many people from the School of Materials came to him, mainly hoping to reach a cooperation with the laboratory after the Science Island Laboratory was built.

For example, the dean of the School of Materials and several academicians have come to him.

After all, this is a laboratory worth 500 million yuan. Judging from the specifications of the laboratory alone, such an expensive cost is considered quite high nationwide, and the various experimental instruments used in it must be quite advanced.

For those professors in the School of Materials, they must be envious.

In this regard, Xiao Yi naturally did not completely refuse. He wanted to build a laboratory of his own. The initial purpose was just to ensure that he could use the laboratory at any time when he wanted to use it.

When he doesn't need it, it's fine to rent it to others.

This can also be considered as interpersonal communication. Since he is now in Fei City, it is naturally impossible to completely avoid the academic circle of Fei City.

Of course, probably because he agreed to cooperate, the people in the School of Materials were quite nice to him, so he ran into a professor from the School of Materials as soon as he arrived at the School of Materials.

The professor greeted him: "Professor Xiao, how come you have time to come to our school today?"

Xiao Yi smiled and said: "Professor Chen, I came here today to borrow the laboratory."

Professor Chen laughed immediately: "Hahaha, the Science Island Laboratory has not been built yet, so it is indeed not available. I think Professor Xiao can't wait to use the Science Island Laboratory."

Xiao Yi shrugged helplessly: "No way, I can't wait to travel to one year later."

Professor Chen smiled, and then said: "Well... if you want to borrow the laboratory, the laboratory should be available today."

"Oh? When the School of Materials and laboratories are empty?"

Xiao Yi raised his eyebrows.

The School of Materials Science and Engineering at HKUST is quite competitive. All the laboratories are basically fully booked every day. How could there be a situation where all the laboratories are completely empty?

Professor Chen smiled and said, "It's mainly because someone in our school is graduating today. She is holding her graduation defense. All the teachers and graduate students in the school went to watch."

"Speaking of this person, Professor Xiao, you should also know her. She is Professor Sun Lina's student, Luo Mingya. I remember that you cooperated on a project last year and published it in Nature. It made us envious."

"Oh, I remember! It seems that your absolute electronic calculation was also done at that time, tut tut tut..."

Professor Chen sighed with emotion. That was the absolute electronic calculation...

However, Xiao Yi was stunned when he heard what he said.

What?

Luo Mingya graduated now?

Isn't this a bit too sudden?

It seems that Luo Mingya only studied for two years for her doctorate?

Hmm...

In fact, he was even more exaggerated. He only studied for one year at most, and then he got two doctoral degrees.

Of course, considering Luo Mingya's many achievements, it is reasonable for her to graduate with a doctorate in two years.

However, according to the previous situation, she doesn't seem to want to graduate?

Xiao Yi also learned from Xu Ming and others that the reason why Luo Mingya originally came back after completing her master's degree in Cambridge was mainly because she came to be Sun Lina's student, and she had tens of millions of funds to use every year, and she could do the projects she wanted. If she were abroad, she would definitely not have such treatment. Those supervisors may not have so much money to do projects every year, and even if they did, it would be impossible for her to control it.

So Xiao Yi felt confused.

Then, he asked Professor Chen his question.

Professor Chen was stunned, then shook his head and said, "I don't know either. Of course, if she still stays in school after graduation, it's okay, but it seems that she plans to leave. Although the dean and others are trying to persuade her, they can't persuade her."

"Yesterday, two professors from the National University of Defense Technology came. One of them seems to be an academician of the military. They are going to take Luo Mingya to a military project to do research after her graduation defense."

Xiao Yi was stunned. Luo Mingya plans to do military-related research?

"Oh, let's not talk about it. Her defense should start soon. I'm going there now. If Professor Xiao wants to borrow the laboratory, just go to the laboratory building. There should be an administrator there. Or do you want to go and take a look together? I heard that her graduation thesis can also be published in a top journal."

Xiao Yi thought about it, and finally nodded and said, "Then I'll trouble Professor Cheng to lead the way."

Professor Chen smiled and nodded, then walked in front, and Xiao Yi quickly followed.

...

Soon arrived at the lecture hall, which is quite large and can probably accommodate hundreds of people.

At this time, people from the School of Materials Science and Engineering were constantly entering the door. It was obvious that Luo Mingya's graduation defense had indeed attracted a lot of people.

She was indeed the "female bully" of the School of Materials Science and Engineering.

When Xiao Yi came, he was immediately recognized by many people.

"Oh my god, Xiao Shen!"

"Xiao Shen is here too!"

Soon, the movement at the door was also heard in the lecture hall.

At this time, Luo Mingya was standing in front of the lecture hall, and the dean of the School of Materials Science and Engineering, Fei Xiaonan, was talking to her.

"Hey, Mingya, why do you have to do this? Isn't it good to stay in our University of Science and Technology? Why do you have to go to the National University of Defense Technology? There is no need! If you want to be a strong country in scientific research, you can go anywhere!"

Luo Mingya said: "I have already thought about it. The main thing is that the project there is related to a topic I have always been interested in. There I can get in touch with more advanced results in this area."

"After this result is produced, I may come back."

Fei Xiaonan sighed helplessly: "Okay, although I don't know what project you are talking about, it seems that the confidentiality is quite high..."

"Anyway, you must come back when the time comes."

Luo Mingya smiled lightly: "Everyone in the college calls me a female bully. After I leave, they may be happy."

Fei Xiaonan glared: "Who said that! How many people in our college hope you stay."

Just kidding, although Luo Mingya is famous for her performance in their college, on the other hand, Luo Mingya's many achievements have also improved their college's ranking among the major colleges in the country in the field of materials science, and also attracted countless cooperation and funding.

This involves the college's funding allocation policy. A powerful professor can often get a lot of funding from institutions such as the National Natural Science Foundation. Then the university or college can deduct a certain proportion of this funding to support the college's infrastructure, or part of the funding will be handed over to the college or university's financial department, and then these departments will redistribute it according to needs.

So in most cases, a college often hopes that they have more powerful scholars here.

Therefore, they certainly hope that people like Luo Mingya can stay.

Female bully and the like are basically the names spread among those graduate students. None of their professors would call them that, after all, maybe one of them has enjoyed the funds earned by Luo Mingya for the college.

At this time, the movement outside the door attracted their attention.

"Xiao Shen..."

"Xiao Shen!"

...

Hearing the names called by the students outside, Fei Xiaonan and Luo Mingya couldn't help but look outside.

"Is this... Xiao Yi here?" Fei Xiaonan said in surprise, and then he walked out.

Luo Mingya also showed a surprised expression.

Could it be that Xiao Yi also knew that today was her graduation defense?

Soon, Xiao Yi appeared at the door and happened to meet Fei Xiaonan who was walking out.

"Dean Fei."

He greeted him.

Fei Xiaonan was surprised and said, "I didn't expect it was really you, Professor Xiao. You are here to attend Luo Mingya's defense?"

He turned his head and glanced at Luo Mingya behind him, then smiled and said, "But it's understandable. Professor Xiao has worked with Mingya before."
